    • By far the best edition of a classic
"Ra" is one of famed boardgame designer Reiner Knizia's most famous games. It's like you're playing an ancient Egyptian venture capitalist or hedge fund manager. You have to decide where to place your bids, taking into consideration what other players are doing and your own funds. Lots of depth and psychology, but simple rules. A classic for reason, revered by even the most experienced boardgamers. I think 3 players is the sweet spot, 4-5 is great, and 2 is passable but not ideal. I've owned two other editions, and this one is by far the best. Why? A couple of reasons. (1) Ra was never a particularly complicated game, but for new players, it can be tricky to keep track of the scoring rules without some kind of player aid during the game. Some previous editions put the scoring rules on the board, but that's not a great solution because not everyone can see it easily. This new edition comes with a fantastic player aid that explains all the scoring rules. It's got a lot of symbols, but it serves its purpose once you learn the lingo (takes maybe 5-10 minutes). (2) The art is phenomenal. It's vibrant! The other editions emulated the style of "discovered Egyptian artifacts," ie, drab and brown. This one feels like you're experiencing some quality Egyptian art. (3) The tiles are chunky and are VERY easy to read. With some of the old editions, it was hard to tell if a tile was a Nile or a Flood, for example. That's solved here (even for color blind players) because each tile has a clear written symbol up top. By the way, I own both the STANDARD and "Deluxe" pharaoh edition of this game (the deluxe is only on 25th Century Games' site right now, and is selling out fast). I think both are great. You absolutely can't go wrong with the standard edition. The tiles are chunky, and the money tokens are actually better (because although they are cardboard and not metal, they are colored by value ,so they're easier to sort). Great game! ... show more

    • Beauty game
The quality, components and design are stunning. The gameplay is streamlined and very fun, every game is different. The auctions is a very solid part of the game.

    • a 1999 CLASSIC
Reiner Knizia is the master and this is one of his best games. Ranked 152 on BGG, as of 09/21/23, and it deserves it. This version of the game is by far the best iteration, from a graphic design standpoint. The tiles are very clear and easy to identify. Grab a copy of this one before it's out of print! ... show more

    • The Perfect Rebirth of a Classic Game
I’ve wanted to own this board game ever since I first encountered it 10 years ago. Back then, I didn’t even know what the gameplay was about—I was simply drawn to the Egyptian-themed artwork. Now, a decade later, I’ve come across this edition with artwork by Ian O'Toole, and I couldn’t resist buying it, captivated by its perfect visuals. It turned out to be even more satisfying than I anticipated. Not only is it visually stunning, but the individual player boards are designed with optimal convenience in mind, which is a huge plus. In terms of gameplay, it’s a bit different from the “strategic” experience I had imagined in my younger years. The game revolves around blocking others and the luck of drawing tiles, making it far lighter and more enjoyable than its weighty appearance might suggest. ... show more
